ai-stats/free. AI Stats will choose an available free model that supports the request you are making.
When to use this
- You want a working prototype before choosing a paid model.
- You expect the best free option to change over time.
- You want one stable model ID in application code while AI Stats handles free-provider changes behind the scenes.
Example request
What happens behind the scenes
- Your request goes to the shared
ai-stats/freealias. - AI Stats checks which free models can handle that request.
- One available free model is selected and used for the response.
- Request details still show the exact model that ran, so you can inspect or debug it later.
After your first request
- In Gateway -> Usage, open the request details and confirm which model was used.
- If the request is blocked by workspace policy, check the request details to see which setting stopped it.
- If no free model supports the feature you need, switch from
ai-stats/freeto a specific paid model instead of retrying the same request.
Production notes
- Keep
ai-stats/freefor prototypes, demos, and low-stakes traffic. - If you need predictable latency, output style, or provider choice, move to a specific model once you know what works best.
- If you need stable prompt behavior across services, pair this recipe with Presets.
